- Leading space agency in Europe and science-based technology
company partner to nurture and accelerate the development of new
space startups and innovations
- Letter of intent is looking to extend an existing
collaboration between ESA Business Incubation Center (ESA BIC)
Bavaria and Dassault Systèmes in Germany to ESA BICs across
Europe
- European startups to benefit from Dassault Systèmes’
3DEXPERIENCE platform, 3DEXPERIENCE Lab mentoring, and networking
support
Dassault Systèmes (Euronext Paris: FR0014003TT8, DSY.PA)
(Paris:DSY) and the European Space Agency today announced the
signature of a letter of intent to support the European community
for innovation in the “new space” sector – commercialization of
space driven by private companies. The announcement was made today
during the “New Space Networking” event held at Dassault Systèmes’
headquarters in France to kick off Paris Space Week.
The two organizations will collaborate to nurture and accelerate
new space startups within ESA’s Business Incubation Centers network
in Europe by providing them with technology, mentoring and
networking support to develop their innovations. The agreement is
looking to build upon an existing partnership established in
Germany in 2022 between ESA BIC Bavaria and Dassault Systèmes, with
a view to extend it to other ESA BICs.
Dassault Systèmes and ESA recognize the importance of
digitalization in the successful development of innovations for
space. In recent years, digital technology has enabled disruptive
startups to introduce new concepts for satellites, space travel,
exploration and other aerospace systems that have transformed
traditional industry dynamics.
Dassault Systèmes – through its 3DEXPERIENCE Lab open innovation
laboratory – and ESA will drive new levels of innovation in the
sector by providing startups within the ESA BIC network with access
to Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud. The
platform offers new ways to conceptualize, design, manufacture,
test, certify and sustain new space vehicles. Startups will benefit
from industry-leading applications to engineer their projects in a
3D virtual environment, and streamline collaboration within teams
and with a network of mentors worldwide.
“The ESA BIC network has supported over 1,300 startups and in
the Directorate for Commercialisation, Industry and Procurement it
is our objective to further support these companies in their
journey of scaling-up through building bridges with corporate
partners, investors and internally with other ESA Programs. In the
agency we are also learning from them in adopting a new space
approach to shape the space ecosystem of tomorrow,” said Geraldine
Naja, Director for Commercialisation, Industry and Procurement,
ESA.
“We are at the forefront of a huge wave of innovation in space.
Ten years from now, we will have more than 10 times the number of
satellites orbiting the earth. As the democratization of space
opens up new possibilities in these areas, this race to innovate is
thriving across new space startups in Europe. Our collaboration
with ESA will enable these startups to accelerate the design,
manufacturing, testing and operation of breakthrough technologies
driving a new global space economy,” said David Ziegler, Vice
President Aerospace & Defense Industry, Dassault Systèmes.
ESA, the leading space agency in Europe, has a network of 29 ESA
Business Incubator Centers across Europe to foster the development
of space-enabled ideas, startups and innovations. For 40 years,
Dassault Systèmes has enabled aerospace companies to create new
industry sectors and transform existing ones with trailblazing
firsts – from the first aircraft entirely designed and developed
digitally to advances in eVTOLs, solar-powered flight, and
closed-loop habitats that may eventually support life on other
planets.
